Zoemi's heart stopped beating and by the standards of the medicinal practices of the world he was currently in he has been dead.
He had to be, otherwise, Cherro's spell that allowed him to steal the black-haired boy's mana and powers would not work.
But there was a little catch.
In the first place, Zoemi could use magic only because of the original personality of the artificial soul residing within his body.
Truth be told, said mana was becoming a severe problem for the black-haired boy, as his body was actively fighting against the poison of mana as if it was any other infection.
It wouldn't be all that bad if not for the fact that mana was literally coursing through Zoemi's entire body which resulted in his life-threatening condition
That said, the black-haired boy was dead so even though there was no more mana poison polluting his body what could that change?
